yum install python-pip:No package python-pip available - python

After updating python from 2.5 to 2.7.6 in RedHat 4.2, I tried to use yum to install python pip. However, error occurs:
[gz#pl1 ~]$ sudo yum install python-pip
updates-newkey | 2.3 kB 00:00
fedora | 2.1 kB 00:00
updates | 2.6 kB 00:00
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
No package python-pip available.
Nothing to do
I wonder why? Some say I should
turn on EPEL repo
first, but how?
Unfortunately, even though I "python get-pip.py" manually, it didn't work either. The error was:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "get-pip.py", line 7219, in <module>
import bz2
ImportError: No module named bz2
However, bz2 was there
which bzip2-devel
/usr/bin/which: no bzip2-devel in (/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/home/gz/bin)
And my reference comes from:
http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/installing.html
Thanks for any tip!

I'm going to assume there's a reason you're using RHEL 4.2. In general, you install an RPM to add the EPEL repo although you can also just pull down the repo info file; assuming you're using a 32bit version of RHEL 4.2, I believe you want the one at http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/4/i386/epel-release-4-10.noarch.rpm (if you're using 64-bit or powerpc or whatever, I'd suggest going to http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/4/ and navigating accordingly)
(So download the RPM, and then install it)

I deleted default python on fedora and now getting errors

I recently deleted the default python version on Fedora 31 and installed python 3.9 then made it as default, now I have multiple versions of python.
If I type: whereis python in my terminal this list appear:
python: /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python3.9 /usr/bin/python3.7 /usr/bin/python3.9-config /usr/bin/python3.7m /usr/bin/python3.9-x86_64-config /usr/lib/python3.9 /usr/lib/python2.6 /usr/lib/python3.7 /usr/lib64/python3.9 /usr/lib64/python3.7 /usr/local/bin/python3.7m-config /usr/local/bin/python3.7 /usr/local/bin/python3.7m /usr/local/lib/python3.7 /usr/include/python3.9 /usr/include/python3.7m /usr/share/man/man1/python.1.gz /usr/src/Python-3.7.4/python
If I type pip then I get ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip'
Also multiple packages are broken such as dnf, argcomplete, pip, etc.
I cannot update or install anything.
How can I solve this problem ?
Grab/Download the original python RPMs for your distro and reinstall them that way if they're not still cached under /var ....
With Python 3.9 you should use pip3...So install python3-pip.
That should do the trick
I tried many solutions and didn't work, however I ended up backing up my data and completely deleting the OS, then I downloaded the last version of fedora and restored my data on it.
thanks for your time
I ran into this unfortunate situation as well on Fedora 35. dnf, yum, and a bunch of other things broke.
I didn't manage to get Python 3.10 back through dnf, yum, or apt-get. I downloaded the rpm from https://fedora.pkgs.org/35/fedora-x86_64/python3-3.10.0-1.fc35.x86_64.rpm.html. It did require a dependency of python3-libs which I downloaded from: https://fedora.pkgs.org/35/fedora-x86_64/python3-libs-3.10.0-1.fc35.x86_64.rpm.html.
I installed python3-libs first with sudo rpm -i python3-libs-3.10.0-1.fc35.x86_64.rpm --force as there were some file writing conflicts. I ran the same command for the python3.10 rpm with the --force flag as well since there were 2 conflicts. After that, everything worked perfectly! Managed to dodge having to do a full reinstall.

nrfutil - "ImportError: No module named main" on Nixos

I'm using the tool nrfutil which is implemented in Python. To be able to use it under NixOS I was using a default.nix file, that installed nrfutil into a venv. This worked for some time very well. (The last build on the build server using Nix within an alpine container could build the software I'm working on 11 days ago successfully.) When I do exactly the same things (i.e. restarting the CI server build without changes), the build fails now complaining about pip being incorrect:
$ nix-shell
New python executable in /home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/python2.7
Not overwriting existing python script /home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/python (you must use /home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/python2.7)
Installing pip, wheel...
done.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/pip", line 6, in <module>
from pip._internal.main import main
ImportError: No module named main
To me it seems that the module main should exist:
$ ls -l .venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/_internal/main.py
-rw-r--r-- 1 matthias matthias 1359 10月 15 12:27 .venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/_internal/main.py
I'm not very much into the Python environment, so I don't know any further. Has somebody any pointer for me where to continue debugging? How is Python resolving modules? Why doesn't it find the module, that seems to be present to me?
This is my default.nix that I use to install pip:
with import <nixpkgs> {};
with pkgs.python27Packages;
stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "impurePythonEnv";
buildInputs = [
automake
autoconf
gcc-arm-embedded-7
# these packages are required for virtualenv and pip to work:
#
python27Full
python27Packages.virtualenv
python27Packages.pip
# the following packages are related to the dependencies of your python

src = null;
shellHook = ''
# set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH so that we can use python wheels
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=$(date +%s)
virtualenv --no-setuptools .venv
export PATH=$PWD/.venv/bin:$PATH
#pip install nrfutil
pip help
# the following is required to build micro_ecc_lib_nrf52.a in the SDK
export GNU_INSTALL_ROOT="${gcc-arm-embedded-7}/bin/"
unset CC
'';
}
I replaced pip install nrfutil with pip help to make sure the problem is not the package I try to install itself.
I'm still using python 2.7 as the nrfutil still is not fit for Python 3.
Anyway replacing python27 with python37 did not change the error I get when trying to start pip.)
NixOS version used locally is 19.09. Nix in the CI docker container is nixos/nix:latest which is the nix package manager on Alpine Linux.
Update:
Actually it works when I replace the call to pip install nrfutil with python2.7 -m pip install nrfutil. This actually confuses me even more. python2.7 is exactly the binary that is in the shebang of pip:
[nix-shell:~/source/tbconnect/bootloader]$ type python2.7
python2.7 is /home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/python2.7
[nix-shell:~/source/tbconnect/bootloader]$ type pip
pip is /home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/pip
[nix-shell:~/source/tbconnect/bootloader]$ head --lines 2 .venv/bin/pip
#!/home/matthias/source/tbconnect/bootloader/.venv/bin/python2.7
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
Update 2:
I found out that another way to fix the problem is to edit .venv/bin/pip. This script tried the following import:
from pip._internal.main import main
Which I think is the new module path starting with pip 19.3. But I still have pip 19.2. When I change this line to:
from pip._internal import main
Running pip by typing pip is working.
The thing is I have no idea why the pip script is trying to load the new module path while NixOS still has the old version of pip.
I also opened an issue for NixOS on GitHub: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/71178
I got your shell derivation to work by dropping the Python27Packages.pip,

"IndexError: list index out of range" on "import pybel"

I'm working on a web app django, when I install openbabel and try to import pybel i've got an error
I'm using a venv that was activate when I did all this commands
I install openbabel like this:
sudo apt-get install python-openbabel
I also tried :
sudo apt-get install openbabel libopenbabel-dev swig
Then I did :
pip install openbabel
after that, I've tried to import pybel (after importing openbabel)
This is actuall result :

Any help please?
As #Manu mathew said, this is a bug, but not in Python's openbabel package but rather in the openbabel C library that it wraps (provided by the openbabel apt package).
The bug is fixed in version openbabel/2.3.2+dfsg-3 that for your Ubuntu Xenial (judging by your Python version) is not available.
So you need to upgrade your distro. The fix is available since Bionic but for best results, upgrade to the latest distro release (see below for explanation).
Beside that,
Installing python-openbabel apt package is useless because it's for Python 2. A package for Python 3 would be called "python3-openbabel" but there's no such package. So you do have to install the bindings from PyPI.
Installing a Python package both globally with apt-get and into venv with pip is redundant.
If you are using an old distro, you also open yourself to possible breakage when you link a new bindings package from PyPI against an old C library on your system. If the bindings package builds against your local library, it is likely meant to support this version, but who knows how much this combination was tested.
So normally, you should prefer the apt-get version of a Python package that wraps a local C library if one is available if you are using the system Python. You can make globally installed packages available in a venv by creating it with --system-site-packages.
But since in this case, there's no apt-get version of bindings available, you have to install the bindings from PyPI. In this case, you'd better have the C library version that corresponds to the bindings' version -- i.e. probably the latest -- since that combination was clearly extensively tested.

hdf5 / h5py ImportError: libhdf5.so.7

I'm working on a project involving network messaging queues (msgpack, zmq, ...) on a RHEL 6.3 (x86_64) system. I was installing the most recent packages of glib, gevent, pygobject, pygtk, and such in order to get pylab / matplotlib to work (which hasn't been successful either).
After giving up I went back to my code and somehow I had managed to wreck my hdf5 / h5py installation - h5py can't find libhdf5.so.7 on import. I immediately reinstalled hdf5-1.8.9 in /usr/local/hdf5 on RHEL 6.3 (x86_64) as follows:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/hdf5
make
make check
sudo make install
make check install
which seemed to work just fine. Then I went to reinstall h5py (in python 2.7.3):
python2.7 setup.py build --hdf5=/usr/local/hdf5/
python2.7 setup.py test # optional
# sudo python2.7 setup.py install
which fails to import the _errors file in the tests, like so:
======================================================================

h5py was working fine before I went to install the aforementioned packages / tarballs, and I don't remember touching anything that even remotely looked like hdf5. Any ideas?
EDIT:
Trying to locate the file only shows it in the location i untarred it:
cronburg#rhel:~/Downloads/h5py-2.0.1$ locate libhdf5.so.7

/home/cronburg/tmp/hdf5-1.8.9/src/.libs/libhdf5.so.7.0.3
take a look on:
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/srodzaj/1/search/libhdf5.so.7()(64bit)
Or should try this repo: https://ius.io/Packages/
I prefer always use the most updated python version, in a package format.
https://dl.iuscommunity.org/pub/ius/stable/Redhat/6/x86_64/repoview/python27.html
sudo yum install -y https://centos6.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm
sudo yum install -y python27
sudo yum install -y python27-devel
Do a pip install and be happy:
$ sudo pip install h5py
Installing collected packages: h5py
Successfully installed h5py-2.6.0
This also happened to me when using h5py on a clean raspbian. You need to install the system libraries first.
apt install libhdf5-dev
then
pip install h5py

Cannot install python packages from source-code

I need to install PIL (python imaging library) on my Ubunto10.4-32bit (EDIT:64bit) machine on my python2.5.4-32bit.
This question is also relevant to any other source package I guess (among those that I need are RPyC,psyco and numpy).
I downloaded the source-code since I can't find any neat package to do the job and did
a sudo python2.5 setup.py install.
output:
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 9, in <module>
import glob, os, re, struct, string, sys
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/struct.py", line 30, in <module>
from _struct import Struct, error
ImportError: No module named _struct
but
echo $PYTHONHOME
/usr
Well, in the file struct.py theres the line from _struct import Struct, error
This is part of the python source code itself so I really wonder whats wrong with the python installation, since the code fails to import the module.
I installed py2.5.4 by doing:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make altinstall
(using make altinstall since I need py26 as default python interpreter)
EDIT: This issue might have risen from mistakenly using a 64bit platform :) and 32bit python2.5 . So anyhow problem solved by reducing unnecessary complexities - switching to 32bit machine and porting app to python 2.6.
In short:
Try using the Ubuntu repository first. If the package isn't there, use easy_install. If all fails, download the package directly to your source folder.
Ubuntu repository (the apt-get approach)
Ubuntu (10.04 and newer) has most mainstream packages are available with apt-get. The naming convention is python-NAME, e.g. python-imaging or python-scipy.
This is the best way to go, since the native package manager will handle any dependencies and updates issues.
Run apt-cache search python | grep "^python-" | less to see a list of packages available for your system (I have over 1,200 in my 10.04 machine).
Setuptools
For packages that are not part of the Ubuntu repository, you can use the python easy-install tool. First, install the setup tool:
sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
And you can install any Python package, e.g. colorworld, using easy-install:
sudo easy_install colorworld
This gives you some degree of protection (e.g., handles dependencies) but updates are generally manual, and it's a real pain to reinstall all these packages in a new computer.
Manual download
You can always download the source code to some directory and add it to your PYTHONPATH. It's the best approach when you just need to evaluate a package or apply some quick-and-dirty solution.
sudo aptitude install python-imaging
This will install PIL library.
sudo aptitude install python-imaging
That will install PIL. But I'm not really sure how to help with your other packages. Maybe try searching for them in synaptic.
